I don't mean to be too contentious, but these are the reasons I switched to XFS. I would actually prefer to be ext3 since it's more common. Just my 2c :)
Actually, about two versions ago xfs had a problem similar to this one, it was not synced on halt. it must be recorded somewhere on the archive.
I guess I've been lucky :)
I used to have to do ext3 fixups quite often on home and root. Out of interest (hope I can post this here) what do you guys recommend for a partition setup? Mine is simple, just swap, / and /home.
Who knows! If I recommend a setup, I'm sure there will be a nasty bug in 11.3 and you loose all data :-p What I use for my "production" part of the machine is ext3 for /, and a mixture of xfs and reiser for the rest. For example, home is xfs, and the /usr/src partition is reiser (compilation runs generate lots of small files, and run faster on a reiserfs partition). I use ext3 for root because it is probably the one with more support and better known - and it is the most crucial partition. As I keep most of my data out of it, it can be kept relatively small and fsck takes minutes. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
